I'm a University Lecturer in English and the author of a novel, The Secret of Hurricanes (MacAdam/Cage 2002). My life is summed up by Rumi, who said: "My story gets told in various ways: a romance, a dirty joke, a war, a vacancy." Rumi's quote is the epigraph to Hurricanes. The purpose of this journal is to explore creativity and the writing life.

How Cold Is It?
That is frost on the inside of the window in my computer room.
It's freeezzzzing here, too! The wind chill this morning is 13 below! Brrr!
Phoebe is doing okay. She still has a lot of energy, and she still likes to chew things (over the weekend, she ate a pen). But she is also still a big sweetie most of the time. She has, unfortunately, been getting shorter walks because of the cold weather. I'm sure she'll love it when spring comes! (Although she also was a big fan of snow the day that we got a few inches. She'd throw it up with her nose, and then chase it. It was so funny to watch! It made me laugh out loud!)
That looks way too cold for my taste, especially after already experiencign two extended cold periods (at least cold by PNW standards) already this year.
